CHE Check?

[John Dallas]

Pls check on # 157019. Bbls are 28". Not sure if they have been cut. Sort of a faint blank area at muzzle. New nicely done stock. $3400. Old stock included.

TI3, H, 2, C, 12, 28

D grade with Titanic Steel barrels, hammerless, ejectors, 12 ga, 28" barrels

[John Dallas]

Pls translate. I'm a bozo.

Titanic steel, hammerless, ejectors, capped pistol grip, 12g, 28" barrels.

The TI 3 would indicate grade 3 or D. Are you sure it is a C grade? That would be a grade 4.

If it is a CHE, that price is good. But if it is a DHE, you would have to look more at overall condition and such at that price.

[John Dallas]

Bbls have been reblued. Full coverage engraving except for the area behind the hinge pin and about 50% on the floor plate. Will try to email bad cell phone pix to Brian

[Brian Dudley]

Standing by. :whistle:

[Bill Murphy]

The grade, letter and/or number, will be stamped on the water table. That serial number is a bit late for Titanic Steel on a C grade. It should have Acme steel if it is truly a C.

[Mike Shepherd]

The Parker Story shows about equal numbers of Titanic Steel barrels and Acme barrels on C grade hammerless guns - about 400 each.

Edit - that is for 12 gauge guns.

[John Dallas]

Seller confirmed DHE. Bbls have been reblued, and it's been restocked (nicely IMHO). Seller wants $3400.

[David Dwyer]

IMHO that is a little pricey. Value would depend on overall condition including barrel wall thickness,

[Mike Shepherd]

I forgot to state that the gun shows to have shipped with a capped pistol grip.

Seems pricey to me for a restocked reblued gun. Ejectors increase the price though

[John Dallas]

Gun does have a CPG. Dog's head butt with spur

[Brian Dudley]

I do not think the price is too high if the work is quality and well done.
Any case colors left?

[John Dallas]

Finally had a guy who knows slapped some sense into me. Hot blued bbl, melted keels. I'm off it.

[Brian Dudley]

Well then... Not quality or correct work.
